• Supervising and reviewing work prepared by junior staff
• Ensuring assignments are completed to a high standard and in line with deadlines
• Supporting partners and managers with ad-hoc advisory and project work as required

Requirements

• ACA / ACCA Qualified or at final stages of qualification
• Strong experience in accounts preparation within a UK practice environment
• Some audit exposure is desirable (full training can be provided if needed)
• Excellent communication and organisational skills
• A proactive approach and the ability to work independently and as part of a team

• Competitive salary based on experience
• Flexible working and hybrid options
• Clear progression path and regular CPD
• Supportive, people-focused culture within a respected independent firm
